Career in yoga

Career in yoga
                  The word Yoga comes from the Sanskrit word "Yuj" meaning to yoke, join or unite. This implies joining or integrating all aspects of the individual - body with mind and mind with soul - to achieve a happy, balanced and useful life, and spiritually, uniting the individual with the supreme.
                 In India, Yoga is considered one of the six branches of classical philosophy and is referred to throughout the Vedas - ancient Indian scriptures and amongst the oldest texts in existence.The Upanishads are also broadly philosophical treatises which postdate the Vedas and deal with the nature of the "soul" and universe According to the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, the ultimate aim of Yoga is to reach "Kaivalya" (emancipation or ultimate freedom). This is the experience of one's innermost being or "soul" (the Purusa). Then one becomes free of chains of cause and effect (Karma) which tie us to continual reincarnation.. From these have come the various paths of yoga which can be followed.
1.  Raja yoga involves mastery of the mind and senses in Samadhi; essentially the advanced aspects of Patanjali's astanga  yoga.
2.   Hatha yoga is the yoga of the will which involves cultivating ones energy to arouse
3.    Kundalini primarily by means of asana and pranayama.
4.    Mantra yoga involves reciting sacred syllables to reach perfection.
5.    Laya yoga involves absorption in god to experience ultimate bliss.
6.    Bhakti yoga requires absolute devotion to god to achieve the ultimate goal.
7.   Karma yoga achieves this through selfless work without thought of personal reward.
8.    Jnana yoga is the yoga of knowledge cultivating the discrimination between spiritual reality and the  illusion of the material world."
